The Chevrolet Camaro is an automobile manufactured by Chevrolet, classified as a pony car and some versions also as a muscle car. It went on sale on September 29, 1966, for the 1967 model year and was designed as a competing model to the Ford Mustang. The car shared its platform and major components with the Pontiac Firebird, also introduced for 1967.
Four distinct generations of the Camaro were developed before production ended in 2002. The nameplate was revived on a concept car that evolved into the fifth-generation Camaro; production started on March 16, 2009.
Before any official announcement, reports began running during April 1965 within the automotive press that Chevrolet was preparing a competitor to the Ford Mustang, code-named Panther. On June 21, 1966, around 200 automotive journalists received a telegram from General Motors stating, "...please save noon of June 28 for important SEPAW meeting. Hope you can be on hand to help scratch a cat. Details will follow...(signed) John L. Cutter – Chevrolet public relations – SEPAW secretary." The following day, the same journalists received another General Motors telegram stating, "Society for the Eradication of Panthers from the Automotive World will hold first and last meeting on June 28...(signed) John L. Cutter – Chevrolet public relations SEPAW secretary." These telegrams puzzled the automotive journalists.
Head 2 Head was a sports quiz show that aired on ABC TV in Australia between 18 February and 9 December 2006 and broadcast on Saturday evenings initially at 6 pm, then at 5 pm. The show was hosted by Ashley Bradnam and produced by Nick Price.
The show format was for two contestants to answers sports trivia questions over four "quarters".
In the first quarter, competitors would answer ten general questions, all of which were either multiple choice or "true or false". One point was awarded for a correct answer and there was no penalty for an incorrect answer.
In the second quarter, competitors would answer up to twenty questions on a specialty topic in a maximum period of two minutes. The topics would be chosen by the contestants several weeks prior to the show. As with the first quarter, one point was awarded for a correct answer and there was no penalty for an incorrect answer.
The third quarter lasts two minutes and is a more traditional quiz show "buzzer round", again with general sports questions. One point is awarded for a correct answer but one point is now lost for an incorrect answer.

CHRIS HARRIS ON CARS - 997 GT3 RS v Camaro Z28
There’s a muscle-car war brewing in Detroit these days. Right as the handling-champion Z/28 goes out of production, Ford delivers a Shelby-badged suckerpunch with a flat-plane-crank V8, MR dampers, and carbon fiber wheels. Head 2 Head host Jason Cammisa takes the two through a series of challenges: first, some canyon carving to see which car is better on the road. Then, a dyno shootout: can the GT350R’s 5.2-liter Voodoo make more power than the venerable 7.0-liter LS7? And then, it’s onto Chuckwalla Valley Raceway where Jason and racecar driver Randy Pobst find out not only which one is faster around the track, but which car handles best. No muscle-car comparison test would be complete without a drag race, of course, so Cammisa lines up the cars with the help of his cousin Bob from West Vi...
The Z28 has always been the baddest of the Camaro line-up. But it’s never been as expensive or hard-core as this version. This Z28 sits atop the Camaro models with a naturally aspirated 7.0L engine, carbon-ceramic brakes, and a 70k price-tag. How does this king of Camaros compare and contrast with the king of the Dodge Challengers, the Hellcat. The guys drive on long fast straights and tight back roads, then debate.

This Camaro Z28 is brought to us by Mark Still, owner of the amazing 'NO STYLE' Corolla we filmed a few years back. Bought as a leftover model, we find the Z28 is really a steal when you buy at a discount, and the performance of this machine is undeniable on a road or a track.
Fast Lane Daily's Tom Albrecht takes a deeper look into the new 2014 Chevrolet Camaro Z28. The 2014 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 is powered by an LS7 V8 making 500-hp and 470 lb-ft of torque -- and don't get it mixed up, this Camaro Z/28 isn't only for the track, it's meant for everyday use with the focus on track capability.

On this episode of Head 2 Head, Jonny Lieberman travels to Barber Motorsports Park for a head to head matchup with the brand new Chevy Camaro Z/28 and a well known heavyweight, the Nissan GT-R. But not just any GT-R, the 2014 Track Edition which packs a 545 hp twin-turbo V-6, a 6-speed dual clutch transmission, sticky Dunlop tires and AWD traction into a car without rear seats. The Z/28, by way of contrast, features a massive 7.0-liter naturally-aspirated V-8, a 6-speed manual transmission, and tail-out RWD. While it does still have rear seats, nearly every other non-essential component has been removed. Moreover, the Z28's tires might be even stickier! The front ones, enormous 305-sections, are certainly the widest tires ever bolted to a production car. Both cars are phenomenal, and both ...
Special thanks to Lafontaine Chevy of Dexter, Mi http://lafontainechevy.com Follow Us on Instragram! @VehicleVirgins Like us on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/vehiclevirgins The Z28 is the bad girl you don’t take home to your parents. It’s not really an appropriate car to show up to a business meeting. And like driving a rolls royce it’s like giving people the proverbial middle finger all the time. It quietly whispers, my car is so much more badass than yours is hilarious. In case you aren’t familiar, the Z/28 is no ordinary Camaro. It sports carbon ceramic brakes, the LS7 from the previous gen Corvete Z06 and the widest front tires of any production car. The price? An almost crazy $76,755. So why would you spend this much money on a Camaro. Especially considering air conditionin...

Things go sideways during a development test when the rear wheels of this Camaro lock up and the car hits the safety barrier. The driver appears to be unharmed.
